Secretary Prime Vol. 2

Deep in the uncivilized world, before history... Animals were nothing but animals. Abandoned in these dark woods, an ape-man seeks to defend himself from this primeval force, armed with the philosophical teachings of his former caretakers. Now, realizing the power of society, the animals band together and develop a potent culture around the scaffolding of civilization, the dread force Art. What is it? And where will it take them? A short time after this, a young rodent seeks to become a keystone of this civilization, where he can develop a fantastic Art and become a legend. But the subject of his choosing is not as easy to apprehend as he thinks. Secretary Prime is the story of his hunt.

In this volume, the rodent SV attempts to reconcile his independence to his friend, the jerboa. If she knows a thing or two about what he's chasing, she isn't giving him any clues. Is she even a friend? She handed him a crushing defeat during their midterms. What does this have to do with his goal? Frustrated, SV takes it all in and forms a new conclusion: seclusion.
